Default Leather visor covers

Not wanting to violate forum rules (but I can't find them!) is anyone interested in visor covers in leather to eliminate the ugly airbag stickers? The oem mirror is retained and the cover is stitched by hand to replicate the steering wheel. This is a request for interest only, not an offer to sell, as that would go into the paid forum if enough people wnt them. Thanks

Those stickers are there according to federal law.

Only until the car is sold. But you should read them just before the moment of inpact to refresh your memory. That is why they are at eye level!

I forgot to mention; these are not do it yourself slipcovers. They are molded over and stitched to your core. The old covering is stripped off. I'll post pictures if I can figure out how to do it. (computer challenged)

These are different from Ricks. The old vinyl is stripped off. The foam underneath is a honeycomb that is filled in, smoothed, then the leather is glued, stretched, and hand stitched to the core, with the same pattern as the steering wheel. There is no zipper or open seam. This is a very classy upgrade, right in there with Jag, Lambo, etc.
